Torpedo Factory Art Center joined artists and organizations across the country for the second annual Artists Sunday, a nationwide event on the Sunday after Thanksgiving to encourage consumers to shop with artists and craftspeople. It’s like Black Friday or Small Business Saturday but for shopping for art!
Torpedo Factory Art Center is the region’s best place to find unique gifts, from handmade jewelry and ceramics to paintings and custom ornaments. Shop small and buy local from nearly 200 artists on all three floors.
All artists in the Art Center are also small, independent business owners. Shop with them and gift something special, unique, and hand-crafted this holiday season! Support the local economy and help maintain the distinctive and creative personality of Old Town Alexandria.
Live Music: 1:30 – 4:30 pm
Enjoy live music from Cinema Hearts as you browse artist studios and galleries!
